MUMBAI: Many passengers who flew in from Jeddah to Mumbai on Monday morning by a Saudi Arabian airlines flight found their bags missing for many hours.

Saudi flight 744, packed mainly with pilgrims, landed at 8.30 am. Amit Gokhale, a passenger said, "There were about 500 passengers and after the aircraft landed, there was chaos at the airport. Many had checked in holy water, zamzam, and the conveyor belt packed with these plastic containers stalled every few minutes.''

"My wife and I checked in four bags, but I found only two. I found my last bag after two-and-a-half-hours,'' he said.

A Saudia spokesperson was not available for comment.

Kunal Guha, another passenger, lost two bags.
